Thing # 1

The easiest habit for me is Habit 2, “Accept responsibility for your own learning”. As someone who has spent more time in the military than not, I have learned that being responsible for myself is extremely important. So, I find myself looking inward if a situation arises where I am not performing at a certain level or standard. I have learned how not blaming others, or society for my own shortcomings helps me to become a more focused learner. The hardest habit for me is Habit 7, “Teach and mentor others”. It’s not that I don’t enjoy, or are not comfortable with this habit. I feel it’s more that I want to do a great job at it. Since teaching and mentoring is judged more by the persons receiving the help, I feel it’s hardest for me to be satisfied with the job I’ve done.

Setting up this blog was not very difficult. I did have a bit of trouble registering it, but was able to figure out my error and correct it. The take away I most look forward to with this experience is to gain some insightful knowledge about using the web, its technologies, and how to properly apply it to the classroom.
